Wow. I may be getting old.

Posted by Spawn Dec 4 '17, 07:57

Raked leaves, the entire yard, Saturday and Sunday.
Apparently my back is pissed off at me over this.

- My dad built a house when I was in HS. I learned from that experience to pay people to do that shit. -- nm - Spawn Dec 4, 08:19 2
  - I'm not into this process. At. All. - Epiphany Dec 4, 08:33 1
    - I can actually see the joy in it. I'm just not that skilled at carpentry. -- nm - crash davis Dec 4, 09:09
- Pretty sure all those things those "old" people told us when we were younger were actually true. - JaxSean Dec 4, 08:18 5
  - gravity is no friend to your back, especially when you get older and / or fatter. -- nm - groiny Dec 4, 08:33 3
    - Did you just call Pippy fat? -- nm - JaxSean Dec 4, 08:49 2

  - and a piece of plywood stabbed in the thumb! I'm whiny. - Epiphany Dec 4, 08:10
you need to get a leaf blower and just blow all those damn leaves into your neighbor's yard -- nm - decline Dec 4, 08:05 2
- Willow leaves in grass will not really blow. - Spawn Dec 4, 08:08 1
  - yup, you need one of those big ones on wheels -- nm - decline Dec 4, 08:11
Rake? That's what a mower with a mulcher is for! -- nm - JaxSean Dec 4, 08:02 1
- I have/do that, but this is *way* too many for that. -- nm - Spawn Dec 4, 08:04
L could help. -- nm - budice Dec 4, 08:01 2
- He did last year, but not this year. - Spawn Dec 4, 08:07 1

Same. I didn't even rake. I have a leaf blower, but since I'm tall I have to crouch a lot using it. I'm sore. -- nm - volnelk Dec 4, 07:59 2
- I just do the "use the lawnmower's mulching feature" instead of raking. -- nm - Shaun Dec 4, 08:17
- Pressure washing a sidewalk/driveway kills me. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 4, 08:02
heh, it sucks. I played flag football with our neighborhood crew yesterday and everything is sore. -- nm - CQ Dec 4, 07:58 5
- I did *18* bags. And the backyard is only about 70% done. Willow tree leaves are the devil! -- nm - Spawn Dec 4, 08:00 4
  - really? You have a small kind of yard. Those trees suck -- nm - Remlik Dec 4, 08:08 1
    - Yeah, hence me not being able to mulch all that. I may have overdone the front year, so what is left will easily mulch. The back yard, we will see. - Spawn Dec 4, 08:20
  - dude, that is brutal. -- nm - CQ Dec 4, 08:01
  - Who's weeping now, bitch? -- nm - Willow Trees Dec 4, 08:00
